Arvoitus 1 #26 March 2, 2011 QuoteQuoteVerifiable by whom? By some whackjob feminists who've got an axe to grind? All the pay gap claims are based on stupid idea to compare the median wages of men and women. I've yet to see a study that says that women working on the same field, with same education and experience get paid less then men. You discount overwhelming bodies of evidence on the basis that the people carrying out the research are all "whackjob feminists"? Really? Facts are facts. The reasons behind them are difficult to prove/understand. But a person's wage is clear-cut. Their duties can be defined/examined. And someone's gender (for the most part) is also not very arbitrary. Now if you're saying that thousands of studies are skewing the data/results... Well, you're saying you're smarter than a whole lot of people who are educated, peer-reviewed and who specialise in the field and who, by the way, don't all have a vagina. So ok. If that's how you feel, you're entitled to your opinion. Yes I do. In my experience feminists often come up with findings of the study first and the cherry pick the data that supports their conclusions. Feminism in its essence is a misandrist hate movement which aims at female supremacy.Your rights end where my feelings begin. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Feminism in its essence is a misandrist hate movement which aims at female supremacy. Funny... I just googled the word and the following definition popped up: "Feminism refers to movements aimed at defining, establishing and defending equal political, economic, and social rights and equal opportunities for women.[1][2][3] Its concepts overlap with those of women's rights. Feminism is mainly focused on women's issues, but because feminism seeks gender equality, some feminists argue that men's liberation is therefore a necessary part of feminism, and that men are also harmed by sexism and gender roles.[4][5][6][7] Feminists—that is, persons practicing feminism—can be persons of either sex." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feminism"There is no problem so bad you can't make it worse." - Chris Hadfield « Sors le martinet et flagelle toi indigne contrôleuse de gestion. » - my boss Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

None of them want "female supremacy" and none of them hate men. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
